COPYRIGHTS
Copyright protection is vital to content creators. It protects the expression of ideas, such as novels, computer programmes, plays, music, film, paintings and photographs.
Unlike other IP such as patents, trademarks and designs, copyright does not require registration. In most countries such as Singapore, copyright protection arises automatically upon creation. That said, it does not follow that copyrighted works are also automatically immune to infringement and abuse
Here at our firm, we have a team of IP lawyers and professionals who provide advice to clients on a wide variety of copyright related issues. Given that the exploitation of copyright involves agreements which may be highly complex, our corporate team is also involved. From the drafting of the agreement to the negotiations with the opposing party, we ensure that our clients are put in the best position that they can be in.
We provide advice to clients on the strength of their copyright and value extraction/commercial exploitation such as:
- Copyright licensing
- Drafting of copyright licensing and assignment agreements
- Sale and assignment matters to complement and enhance business growth and expansion strategies
Consult us for advice on how you can strategically protect and use your copyright.
